Went and put my gear on the boat.. WOW!! it is an old boat with an upper deck where there looks like about 60 people are going to be sleeping tonight... leaves at 11pm.. takes about 8 hours..
Ended up being OK.. only a few people on board and I had quite a good sleep.
Up early and off the boat.. all the taxi drivers trying to get a fare. I walked past and had a look around town.
Ended up sharing a taxi with a couple and headed up the west side of the island where I got a bungalow with self contained bathroom (cold shower) over looking the beach and islands...
Here is a sunset from the bungalow... 
Walked into a place call "Mr Matt, rooms, food, drinks."
I found out why he is called Mr Matt... he was flat out on the floor sleeping. Decided not to disturb him.
Not a lot else here.
The island people don't want to know you unless you are going to give them money.. very greedy bunch and the island is fairly dirty....
Here are some Pad Thai noodles, Watermelon juice and garlic bread... yummm...
Fairly expensive (Au$3 - 4) but hey I am on a resort island.
There are some nice spots, but they are in the off season and they are bulding all day.. banging, sawing etc etc... and good thing you can't see the beach up close... bags, cans. and lots of garbage.. fairly disapointing really... you would thing the island people would know a little better.
Spent 4 days here with a fair bit of walking.
Hired another M-bike.. went for a zoom around the island..
